I want a DEFUNKD t-shirt printed on a butter soft / paper thin vintage blank. I'd buy one and I think others would too.

[waxandthreads]

I'd even donate a few blanks to the cause. Enough people donate and this could happen on the really real assuming J was down.

Tots-McGoats...!

I'm down!

Do a super limited run for cost - for the members of the forum? I could pitch in a bit toward tees.

What would it be? Just the D? Full words?

Have thought of doing one that says, "We're Big in Malaysia" hehe

I have a customer who makes thai repro vtg t-shirts and they're really spot on. We can do a rayon tri-blend tee lot printed with the defunkd logo for about $6/piece delivered to Bronx.

Great idea! I'm in.

What's the minimum run your friend would do CrazyBubba?

I'd have some cash to throw in.

Be cool to see a couple design ideas.

Maybe the Defunkd logo with "Vintage T-Shirt Collective" right below it.

Jimmy?

[jimmyj]

Stormcow is in too.

Hmmmm I think it would be coolest on actual vintage blanks - that way we stay topical. And it would be taking blanks out of circulation that you know would likely be used for evil.

Ya? No?

[Johnny65]

Would each person provide their own vintage blank for sizing reasons?

Or would CrazyBubba and his printing friend be able to dig up some vintage blanks?

[CRAZYBUBBA]

He could do a small run of 100 tees. You'd just provide the sizes and logo and he'd do the printing. Sourcing org blanks would be too costly/difficult.

[Johnny65]

I think 100 pieces is way more than we'd ever need.

Was hoping your friend was going to do a custom job where we just printed up a few on vintage blanks.

[jimmyj]

yeah limited run fo sho. I think wax did a small run recently.

let's keep our eyes peeled for vintage blanks and post em in here.

thanks though crazybubba

I know i'm new to the board, but i have many hundred deadstock screen stars/stedman blanks. i don't have a good mix of colors/sizes anymore. but i may be able to put something together...this would be really easy if everyone could fit into youth meds and smalls, i have 1000s of those.

[jimmyj]

Hey cool - take a peek and let us know what sizes and colors you have. M's might work in some cases - but definitely need primarily XLs/Ls

Thanks

[Johnny65]

Pit to pit and top of collar to hem measurements would be good also if mediums are the biggest size you have.

[waxandthreads]

Short run was pretty cheap since I provided the blanks. Think I paid $2.50 a shirt for 2 color. Can't remember what type of ink they used, but it worked out great on Screen Stars. Just picked up about 400 blanks. Haven't had time to inventory yet, but lots of small and medium (go figure) Sportique, some Mayo Spruce heather red ringers (cotton/acrylic), early 80s Hanes white s/s with navy sleeves and a bunch of Sportswear (white & gold tag) white and navy raglans. The raglans are all sizes including L and XL.

Nice man - was wearing your tee the other day! It's like being in an exclusive club, waiting for the day someone says "WHAT! where did you get that?!"

[jimmyj]

Hey guys -

We printed a small batch of 30 on Russell Rayons - sizing is limited, mostly Ms - so may not work for some of you. There is one L rayon available...

we know, they're a touch expensive, but the blanks alone cost a small fortune.

but use rayon30

for 30% off!
